Detect Chemical Compounds and Genes (BertForTokenClassifier)

Description

Detect chemical compounds and genes in the medical text using the pretrained NER model. This model is trained with the BertForTokenClassification method from the transformers library and imported into Spark NLP.

Predicted Entities

How to use

documentAssembler = DocumentAssembler()\
.setInputCol("text")\
.setOutputCol("document")

tokenizer = Tokenizer()\
.setInputCols(["document"])\
.setOutputCol("token")

tokenClassifier = MedicalBertForTokenClassifier.pretrained("bert_token_classifier_ner_chemprot", "en", "clinical/models")\
.setInputCols("token", "document")\
.setOutputCol("ner")\
.setCaseSensitive(True)

ner_converter = NerConverter()\
.setInputCols(["document","token","ner"])\
.setOutputCol("ner_chunk")

pipeline =  Pipeline(stages=[documentAssembler, tokenizer, tokenClassifier, ner_converter])

data = spark.createDataFrame([["""Keratinocyte growth factor and acidic fibroblast growth factor are mitogens for primary cultures of mammary epithelium."""
]]).toDF("text")

result = pipeline.fit(data).transform(data)
val documentAssembler = new DocumentAssembler()
.setInputCol("text")
.setOutputCol("document")

val tokenizer = new Tokenizer()
.setInputCols(Array("document"))
.setOutputCol("token")

val tokenClassifier = BertForTokenClassification.pretrained("bert_token_classifier_ner_chemprot", "en", "clinical/models")
.setInputCols(Array("document","token"))
.setOutputCol("ner")
.setCaseSensitive(True)

val ner_converter = new NerConverter()
.setInputCols(Array("document","token","ner"))
.setOutputCol("ner_chunk")

val pipeline =  new Pipeline().setStages(Array(documentAssembler, tokenizer, tokenClassifier, ner_converter))

val data = Seq("""Keratinocyte growth factor and acidic fibroblast growth factor are mitogens for primary cultures of mammary epithelium.""").toDS.toDF("text")

val result = pipeline.fit(data).transform(data)
import nlu
nlu.load("en.med_ner.chemprot.bert").predict("""Keratinocyte growth factor and acidic fibroblast growth factor are mitogens for primary cultures of mammary epithelium.""")
